Rabbi Michael Lerner and Cat Zavis

How might our economic, education, legal, and political systems look if guided by love, generosity, empathy, justice, and peace? We discuss nuanced, psycho-spiritual analyses of the political landscape, moving beyond materialist-reductionism and shame. Come imagine with us. Imagine with Us is a project of Tikkun and the
